Can the world still be saved? And if so, with what forces?

As part of the exhibition The Opposite of Now, young performers from the ACADEMY Stage Art School (ACADEMY Bühnenkunstschule) transform the glass courtyard of the Jewish Museum Berlin into a living laboratory of the future. In an intense, approximately 35-minute performance combining dance, song, and acting, they take over the space and pose the burning questions of their generation.

Sun 22 + 29 Nov 2026, each at 2 and 4 pm

Where, when, what?

As modern-day superheroes, they don’t flee from reality but courageously create their own utopias. But where does the line between desire and reality lie? Will utopia ultimately become the new reality?

Experience an energetic production full of hope, a spirit of rebellion, and artistic power!
